Change energy saver prefs from Terminal?

[rotlex]

Anyone know how I might be able to change the energy saver prefs on a system from the command line\terminal? I forgot to tell my machine NOT to sleep at all before leaving for a short business trip, and access thing on it via SSH. It sleeps overnight, and I'll be in the office during some of those hours and would like to be able to get to it.

Any input, or eh, the commands to do it would be greatly appreciated!

My thanks as well.

My integrated graphics card usually displays black -- and sometimes the system reverts to it. I'm using this command to create an applescript to switch graphics cards. Hm, I just realized I have to script a logoff too. I'll be back.
